MSD-12-2715 Magnetic Screen Door

I am retracting my original negative review, When i received the product it clearly states fits 19.5" x 83" door. I never opened the box and asked for a return that Amazon granted, However i didn't return it as i missed the deadline and product was still on my counter.When i received an email with a new review i opened the box just to check it out and must admit my comments were based on what the product box states. The box contains TWO 19.5" curtains so i have enough to cover a standard exterior door. I would like to Apologize to Ideas In Motion and any customers who didn't buy this product based on my review. I do hope the change the labeling on the box as nowhere does it state Two 19.5" curtains Just says Fits 19.5" x 83" door. YES I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS PRODUCT NOWDescription says Fits Single Doors, Sliding Doors and Camper Doors. Ok the whole idea of this product is to keep pests out of your home or camper THE problem is i know of no camper, house or sliding door that is (19.5") That's right 19.5" I looked every where to find an entry door for a home or camper that was 19.5" and GUESS WHAT They don't make one So why sell a screen that size ???

The material is cheaply made and not very durable. The provided thumbtacks for hanging the screen door bend easily. Unless you are hanging this on soft wood and do not have animals (i.e. big dogs) that will be using it, spend a little more up front to save time and money.

The price is right, even if it only lasts for a season. People keep walking through my sliding screen door, so I'd rather just put this up for the summer. The magnets will break after a while, so I like to just keep some at the bottom to weigh it down, and let gravity do the rest.

not sturdy enough..some of the magnets were broken when it arrived so it never worked like it should have. I had to use thumbtacks to hold the top part up since the magnets strips wouldn't hold from the wind.

The screen was very easy to install, even though the nails are very cheap and the cover break super easily. I originally started looking for the screen because our front door doesn't have a screen door and that is a MUST in the South. Then I remembered that my mom had one a few years ago on the back door of her old house, and thought it would be a cheaper and easier route than buying and installing an actual screen door. The screen it's self is okay. In the pictures they show a golden retriever coming through, which led me to think that it would be durable for my American Bulldog. I was wrong. The top where the two sheets meet started to tear easily, and I had to completely take them both down and sew them both because they magnets would not link up with the rip. Currently my stitching is holding up pretty well. But I then noticed that there is a small dime sized hole near the middle of the left panel. Honestly, I feel that the product would be better suited for someone without dogs or small/medium one(s). Would I buy it again? As a temporary screen door yes but not as a long term thing with my 80 pound dog.

Used this all summer and it works great. The dog learned how to get in and out in about 5 seconds. Nice fresh air, open door, no flying critters in the house. I consider it a success.

This is my second purchase of this type of screen. My first purchase cost more, but was a better made product. This purchase was just a temporary measure which is why I opted for the cheapest one. Of course, you get what you pay for, and in this respect, I was not disappointed. My complaints: 1) the magnets do not line up so there are gaps in the magnetic connections (3 connections out of 9), 2) according to description the Velcro is attached but it is not (I think they meant "included" not attached)--more importantly, the Velcro (sticky side) does not stick well to the screen and more often than not, the screen detaches even in the slightest breeze, 3), the screen bias shredded by the second day of use when I tried to readjust the Velcro(because it kept falling off). If you need something for a very short, temporary use, and intend to throw it away, you won't regret this purchase. Pay more to get a better product if you intend on using it longer than a week. I bought this to use as a temporary "pet door" for my dog.

I've gone through several screens and this one is by far the best. The velcro is sewn all around the outside of the frame, which makes it much more durable than other screens.
